Amanoi

Let me start by saying that in a world of overused superlatives, Amanoi stands as a quiet, majestic testament to what true luxury—and yes, perfection—actually feels like. It is not merely a hotel; it is a rare symphony where every element harmonizes so completely that you begin to wonder if you’ve stepped into a dreamscape meticulously crafted for the soul. From the moment you arrive, the gorgeous view asserts itself not as a feature, but as the very essence of the place. Perched within the pristine Nui Chua National Park, overlooking the cerulean embrace of Vinh Hy Bay, the panorama is a living painting. The vistas—from the craggy cliffs to the private white-sand coves—are staggeringly beautiful at every hour. Dawn spills gold over the East Sea, and dusk turns the sky into a watercolor masterpiece. The architecture, all graceful curves and soaring pavilions, seems not built upon the land, but to have grown from it, framing these views with a reverence that takes your breath away. Yet, what elevates Amanoi from a place of stunning beauty to a realm of flawless experience is its heart: the perfect staff. To call them attentive would be a profound understatement. They possess an almost intuitive sense of grace and anticipation. Every need is met before it is fully articulated, always with a genuine, warm smile that feels deeply rooted in Vietnamese hospitality. They are not just employees; they are quiet guardians of your peace, knowledgeable guides to the region’s secrets, and the discreet architects of seamless days. Their professionalism is absolute, yet it is wrapped in a kindness that makes you feel not just welcomed, but truly cherished. Every detail follows this same unimpeachable standard. The villa, a sanctuary of space and serenity, is a study in elegant, minimalist design. In sum, Amanoi is that rarest of finds: a destination that not only promises perfection but delivers it, consistently and quietly, in every glance and every gesture. It is where nature’s grandeur meets human excellence in flawless harmony. From the gorgeous views to the perfect staff, all was, simply and unequivocally, perfect. It’s more than a stay; it’s a benchmark for everything a luxury sanctuary should be. A Beyond-Perfect Experience

Excellent! All was perfect. Room, service, food, location. Extremely good management. Even though they don’t have a kids club, they have children activities.

Why subtle considerations? Amanoi excels in monitoring the resident's behaviours and quirks, and familiarising themselves with these behaviours and inclinations. The staff is impeccable when it comes to the small details, and the team observes and acts. Some examples - (i) My partner went for breakfast with a sniffle and automatically, a box of tissues was put beside him. (ii) Another case was my allergy to alcohol - the housekeeping team removed all alcoholic beverages from the mini bar upon our check-in (iii) The villa's pool is heated to a constant 26C and you have the option to have it heated even more overnight so that it's warmer in the morning (they can cover the pool) (iv) throughout our stay, it was raining on and off, and at times the rain was rather heavy, which made the roads outside the villa laden with dead frogs, snails and worms. We noticed a couple of hours later (after breakfast) that the roads had been cleared. (v) during a meal, my partner had to take a call and stepped away from the table. His bowl of hot pho came. When the staff realise he was not coming back soon, they took the bowl away and served him with a hot bowl when he came back. All these considerations were possible only because of the attentive staff, who convey to each other the preferences of each and every guest. In particular, we thought to express our heartfelt gratitude to the following (non-exhaustive) list of staff whose names we managed to catch:- Hoang, Puthu, Linh, Xuan, Tian and Binh. We had a wonderful and restful stay - marred occasionally by the weather. Definitely will want to return when opportunity arises. Thank you Amanoi crew!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is what hospitality is meant to be My wife and I visited Vietnam for the first time and chose Amanoi — the best decision we could have made. We have stayed at incredible properties around the world, but this was something much more meaningful: elegant luxury delivered with genuine human warmth. The experience began the moment we landed. Amanoi staff welcomed us and helped us bypass long airport lines. The private transfer was beautifully prepared with refreshments as we enjoyed the ride through the mountains toward the resort’s dramatic coastal landscape. On arrival, a team of friendly staff greeted us like family returning home. We felt an immediate connection speaking with the General Manager Pandhu about the resort and his pride in Aman. Shortly after, we met Putu, our personal concierge, who took care of everything. She gave us a tour, helped us understand the expansive 90-acre property, and set up a group chat with the concierge team — a simple but brilliant touch that ensured smooth communication throughout our stay. We chose Ocean Pool Villa 33 and it was perfection: stunning ocean views, private access to a serene bay, and impeccable housekeeping with daily special surprises including a romantic bath arrangement. We originally considered the Lake Wellness Villa, but if you love the ocean, the Ocean Pool Villas are unbeatable. The entire staff was extraordinary. Whether at the spa, in the restaurants, or at the beach club, everyone was warm and attentive. After sailing, a sudden rainstorm hit and the team quickly appeared with towels and umbrellas. Later, Putu surprised us with two hats we admired earlier — one of many moments that made us feel truly cared for. Meals were outstanding — especially the crab fried rice at the beach club, enjoyed with a fresh coconut overlooking the sea. The spa was world-class with a peaceful atmosphere, exceptional massage, and personalized attention. We also warmly remember the conversations with Nhi from the front office team, who checked in on us during a private dinner and came to say goodbye on our last day with heartfelt words. Even the Resort Manager came to see us off — a beautiful final touch. Amanoi is not simply a resort. It is a masterclass in hospitality — a place where you feel seen, appreciated, and genuinely welcomed. If you are looking for the most extraordinary romantic escape in Vietnam, this is it. We will cherish these memories forever. Thank you, Amanoi, for filling our hearts. We can’t wait to return

Every time we visit Amanoi (this was our sixth time), it gets better and better. There is no doubt that this is our favorite hotel/ resort anywhere in the world - it is just heaven!! This time we were upgraded (thankyou so so so much Joy) to a 2 bedroom Residence as we were traveling with a friend - it was perfect. Still with 2 separate villas, plus the bonus of a living room, outside dining room and a HUGE private pool. We loved our residence so much, it was simply incredible. The food was much better than our last visit, we enjoyed a great session at the beautiful spa, took advantage of the morning yoga & Pilates classes, climbed the local hill for great views, spent many hours by the beach, had a private BBQ dinner at our residence and a birthday celebration in the rock studio etc. etc. Everything is just better than what you would have expected or dreamed of…. However, it is absolutely the people and the incredible service that we receive, that totally makes Amanoi the special place that it is! They seem to be able to pre-empt whatever it is you need. We are always remembered and so well looked after, it really does just feel like returning to our second home!! Under Joy’s (GM) incredible long term leadership, the whole team are simply awesome - very special call-out to some of the most amazing team members that really made our stay so special: Putu, Suong, Keva, Lee, Ahn, Hung and Tracy.
